Construction of a Mountain-Side Getaway Home

one of the best documentaries i've ever seen! thank you!)

I’m a city boy and I just sat through your entire 2 hour video and I must say it was an absolute joy watching you men work. You are magicians of your craft. Thank you!

I'm a data scientist and exclusively work at a desk, yet I find this type of work very inspiring and relaxing to watch (: Thank you for putting in the time!

I have 46 years as a carpenter. You build exactly the way I was taught. Do it with pride and do it right. Best video I've seen. Great group of guys making the content educational and funny. Loved every minute. Beautiful job.

As a project manager in the Danish construction industry I really enjoyed your video. Seeing how different you build your houses compared to in scandinavia is just so exciting to watch :D

I came here just to fast forward to a point to check out the mountain view and then move on, but I actually watched the entire 2 hour long video from start to finish and I don't regret a minute of it. You guys are not only great at building houses, your in front of and behind-of camera skills are also amazing. Very entertaining to watch. I'm doing some building (sheds and barns) on my own property in my free time, but I'm not a craftsman...which I really regret. I love working wtih wood and also with concrete and the physical labor outside, especially when the weather is nice. In my next life, I'll be a craftsman and build some nice houses, with a nice crew. =)

I have been a carpenter for over 35 years, the last 25 as a trim carpenter and the crew is what makes or breaks the job. Having guys you would like to go fishing with working next to you makes the work so much more enjoyable. When everyone pulls their weight nothing is too heavy.

Just watched your vid and it was great. Jamie, you inspire me. Last month I severed 3 three of my fingers rebuilding my front porch and I’ve been pretty down. My home is about 140 years old. I’m a weekend warrior, always working on something. Watching you work with your bionic hand lets me know I’ll get back to fixing things very soon. I just subscribed and I’ll keep watching you guys make beautiful homes.

As a Brazilian, it's weird how almost the whole house is made of wood. Over here, the only things made of wood are doors and the stuff to put the roof tiles on.

As a german, working in construction seeing you guys build is always fun to me. Like... we build treehouses that look more stable, yet your buildings obviously seem to work just fine. Makes you wonder what the "best" way of doing it really is. Nice Video ^^

Dude, your trailer backing skills UP the mountain are mind-boggling! Gorgeous house but more important, it looks like yall had a blast doing it! Thanks for all the tips!

What I was not expecting like many others here is -not watching the whole two hours of this documentary second by second. I loved the way you form the teams for each job. Each one of you put something of your experiences into it and it really does standout for your work. Jamie is real sport here to have brains with tons of courage to never-say-no attitude. Real team -work (err, play) for people out here who do want to but can’t afford to. Thanks for this documentation of events. 🎉

I couldn’t finish watching the end of this video yesterday- I had to go to work. I really enjoy your videos. I watch 2 videos over the weekend and my wife just kept saying - u still watching that- I took her out for dinner so she could be quiet. Great work guys.

Never thought I'd watch a 2-hour long YouTube video about a house being built from scratch but I'm all for it. What an entertaining use of my time. Your crew seems like quite the congenial bunch. Thanks.

I'm in college right now studying architecture. The one thing I'm starting to figure out is many architects don't understand how the building process even works, and that includes myself to a degree. I enjoyed every minute of this video and I'll definetly be watching more of your stuff!

Im not even a carpenter. I’m in the oil business. But I’d love to work around this group of guys. This playfulness attitude on the site is refreshing but you can tell in the actual work that these guys are real pros. Love this level of camaraderie and the banter is infectious.

I thoroughly enjoyed watching this build! As a person that comes from a country where masonry is used exclusively, it is such an absolute joy to watch a timber build go up! Wow!

You can tell when everyone on the crew has love for each other, and the fact that you’re all talented puts it over the top!

This is such a nice, positive workplace environment. You can tell it isn't fake. Solid vibe and work, boys.

Loved your video and did watch the whole 2 hours. I was a daddy’s girl who was always around him when he was building. He actually built the house in 1949 where grew up. Learned how to properly use tools and he taught me how to paint. All this to say to you young guys, if you have daughters, share your knowledge and skills. You are very talented and would be wonderful mentors for your children.
